Beanie Sigel ft. R.Kelly “All The Above”

This is a discussion on Beanie Sigel ft. R.Kelly “All The Above” within the R. Kelly Polls forums, part of the R. Kelly Music Chat category; im with maxxx......they were going for the &quot;Go Getta&quot; vibe...but its a wattered down version of it!
i give it ...

I GOT IT!! I know the "thing" that makes this song so-so......BEANIE SIGEL!!! LOL! If this were just a kellz track w/ that same chorus and a few Kellz verses it would be Platinum. Then again, most Kellz collabs are hits, catchy and infectious because of the chorus and kellz killin it.

Beanie Sigel is beefing so much ahead of the release of the Philadelphia rapper's forthcoming album The Solution, you'd almost think he was Curtis Cent. First there he was claiming Kanye and Pharrell are both trapped in the closet. On the Runners-produced "All the Above", The Solution's dark, melodramatic first single, Beans snipes at Pharrell again-- "Billionaires Boys Club can't chill in here"-- and quotes boss Jay-Z ("Money Ain't a Thing") while appearing with noted "Closet"-dweller R. Kelly... who's been suing Jay over one thing or another since the duo's disastrous Best of Both Worlds tour. What, getting shot doesn't sell records anymore?
"All the Above" sounds more like a movie trailer than a hit track, with choral oh-ohs and timpani rumbles that might've been sampled from Carl Orff's insanely overused Carmina Burana. Disses dispensed with, Sigel lists off what he hasn't done-- "Never fronted on my boss for no whore"-- and what he's up to next: "Got my case, did my time, now I'm back!" Kels sounds totally gratuitous, his voice glorious as always but his "I'm hood, I'm street" pose just plain laughable. The R. gives away too much: "Beanie Sigel got my back if we run into a snitch/ And Kels got his back if he ever need a hit."

Both of these tracks were produced by "The Runners" (Go Getta and All The Above).

Both of these tracks have R.Kelly whaling a dramatic and slightly dark and minor octave(s) sounding music. "Go Gettaaaaaa! Go Gettaaaaaaa!" "All the abooooove!"

They both have a choir or classical sounding intro at the beginning.

They both have a lukewarm rapper.

They are also both pompous tracks. They boast this and they boast that. Flaunt this and flaunt that. If they arent gonna Go Getta they are taking All of the Above...

The are both catchy as HELL.

......thats just some of the things that caught my ear.

I see the similarities you named above. But Beanie Sigel, doesn't get on my nerves, I think that's the main difference ot "Go getta". I really like this one, compared to his latest collabos. Is it for sure that there will be a video for it ?

Keep my head up high, looking towards the sky
Nothing in my view, hey I can fly !
